"This collection of photographs is at once beautiful and haunting. It captures the unique mood of this small but fabled rock anchored off of that small but fabled city of San Francisco. Anyone who knows of the legend of Alcatraz will want this book." <BR>Gray Brechin, historical geographer and author of "Farewell, Promised Land" and "Imperial San Francisco" <P><BR>"The photographers were not just tourists to 'the Rock.' Their unique access enabled them to become participants in an evolving history and address the experience of over two hundred years of human occupation on this fascinating island." <BR>Mark Klett, photographer, "After the Ruins, 1906 and 2006: Rephotographing the San Francisco Earthquake and Fire" <BR>
